When dad taught me to drive a rig, back in '63, one of the things he drummed into my brain was, there's no excuse for a chargeable accident. Guess that's why I never had one. Thanks, dad! -Scorpio
When your road companion has four legs & fur,you always cater to them first lol.They may not be the best conversationalist,but they’ll always be at your side and you sir between that smart handsome fella & first class and a beautiful family waiting for you back home have the most a man can ask for! Stay safe driver & thank you for sharing your adventures.
Regarding hamburgers for your dog. Check the ingredients and make sure the burger you are giving him does not contain onion powder. Onions will destroy a dogs kidneys. Garlic is just as bad. It can also cause anemia, lethargy.....etc.
I'm glad to see we're not the only well trained humans! 🤣🤣 Our pups have us wrapped and Opie is leader! They are so loyal & loveable! Be safe out there, watch out for Opie!
My Dad used to tell me, " You have to be smarter than the animal if you want to be the boss ! "
At about 6 years of age my German Shepherd decided he wasn't all that interested in the dry food we had been giving him for all those years. We switched to Zignature Kangaroo dry food and added a ground chicken meal product called Magic Dinner Dust. My boy would try to lick the chrome off the bowl when we added that dust. He made it to 12 1/2 and was trim and active. Hope you and Opie have a very long happy life. Thanks for your great videos.
Kurt, just want to wish a happy Father's day Sunday. Watching your videos I can see your a great Father.
Glad to see Opie looking out the window! Wide awake!
Way awake
Had seen my share of those accidents. Never a sight anyone wants to see. Prayers to all.
Excellent video Kurt! Drive safe and Keep on truckin! 👍👍💪
Absolutely correct, Kurt. Collisions happen all the time, accidents are rare.
Boy he's got you train good it took a while but he got what wanted, Keep on keeping on
LOVE OPIE SO SWEET ❤️❤️🐾🐾🐾ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO !
My wife came up on that accident on her way to Nebraska from Norton. Said was really bad. We always have to be watching
When my dad was young some guy said he was going to commit suicide to the gas station clerk. When my dad was coming through with a full load of steers he pulled out in front of him and my dad ended up on his side with cattle everywhere, people can’t just deal with themselves they have to always involve others. Sad.
31 years on Crescent Iroquois FPD Crescent City Il a small rural volunteer like so many departments around America 🇺🇸. We handled many calls on Rt-24 plus lots of Chicago traffic on N-S Rt49.
We were there to help on people’s worse day ❤️
We did stop rerouting traffic especially since lots of drivers are not use to or trained to drive on rural roads and causing more accidents. Sadly major incidents are a shutdown of the road for 4-6 hours
Be Safe out there Opie
Just catching up. Greetings from the great state of Maine!
Your W900 looks GREAT all cleaned up. Awww heck - even when it's dirty..........
So good to see a video of yours. I haven't seen any for a long time!!
Opie Dokie Dad! You got that corner made!
I hope you know that people think they run the world but I differ all the animals that I know my horse, a dog and my cats they run the world. We’re just here to serve them. I know you know that good job nice video new site really like it.
I love German Sheppard's... so smart :)
Amazing as always. God bless you
Back in the 80's I sold Peterbilts. My spec's were used by the dealership to finally come into the MODERN AGE. Through my ability to spec TOP-OF-THE-LINE ROAD TRACTORS we stocked long-nose 359's with 60 inch sleepers (BIG back in those days ! ). Tractors had ALL THE CHROME I could find including dual air cleaners and FOUR large air horns ! * ! * ! You've WON MY OVER to Kenworth's LUV your rig. Keep up the GOOD WORK. JimInCincy.....
brother I feel ya I have had a crash and its not nice..stay safe brother all the best from the uk...
Thanks for this video to remain of dangers of road
Daddy! Cheeseburger, Cheeseburger, Cheeseburger! Twenty two inch bumper looks straight to me.
I love delivering to places that make you feel appreciated/respectful, makes me feel good too
Hey kurt could have used opie or jax this morning at 3am. Something tried to get our chickens. Our wimpy puppies wouldn't engage with the critter
Thank you For taking us along. I enjoyed both you and your buddy.
Opie watching the world go by, first time seeing him do that. 😂
Dang....you're out in the boonies there! Hard to keep things clean when you're running the back roads.
yep some dogs have a preference of what type of food and won't eat other types for quite awhile, which makes one go ahead and feed them what they prefer due to seeing them not eat for awhile. example, doggo does'nt like the ''wet'' type of food , yet you give him the same in a different type of form, (packed and just slides out with a lot more scent to it,that is a winner.) well anyways that was different seeing your truck on the backroads.. you and opie have a good day , along with the whole family.
Opie says I'm the king Dad and don't forget it! 🤣
Meeting grain trailers, bull racks and pickups pulling livestock trailers. You must be in America's High plains bread basket!
always enjoy your videos. Love riding along and seeing the country from your angle. A+ for enjoyment.
You might want to check out the front end, poss tires steering rod tie rod ends, I swa the steering shaking a lot on the Garden City Load. I drove a truck for forty years when the steering wheel shakes something is wrong. Love youe videos and your family.
I was born in Norton Kansas . I worked part time at a truck stop in the early 70s
that was located where the Casey’s is now. That was when you got your windshield washed and didn’t have to pump your own fuel.I hope you enjoyed your trip through western Kansas. Stay safe out there.
Hi Kurt & Opie. Another great vlog. Thank you 4 taking us along. Nice 2 get 1st class all cleaned up. Not sure if you'll put a vlog out tomorrow. Happy Father's Day to you & to your Dad. Enjoy your time together.💕 Our son & his team lost 10-9 today in the tournament. They played hard. Great season. ⚾️🌭👍🏼
Do like I do 40%dry60% wet mix with a little hot water to loosen up kibble that,way he's getting the kibble unbeknownst to him, dont give in with full can just give a tinny peice of treat if he eats that tinny peice you know he's being stubborn, IDK what ur feeding but my guys love the Purina Pro plan wet/dry combo P.S. don't forget the cosaquin and omega 3's and plz give a "pre" biotic
not just a "pro"biotic for digestive health all come in tasty chew form ECCPECIALLY if he's using stairs all the time cosaquin very important, keep the shinny side up driver happy truckin...p.s.s I'm a big KW fan and I love your truck
Used to work accidents like those for many years Kurt. Was in the towing & recovery business for over 26 years sir. Never a good sight to see. Prayers for those involved. Happy Father’s Day to you & your dad! Blessings to you both!
With all that open land farmers should be working. And plenty land for factory's to be working. 80 thousands pounds compared to 3600 pounds. And still 🚗 can't figure why it so difficult for a 🚛 to stop. Happy Father day to you and yours and B SAFE 🐕🦺🚛💨💨💨💨
Super cool dude. Drive safe and God Bless.
always hated being routed thru secondary roads, was always leary of low power lines, especially in Pa.
It happens too fast and too often. My husband and I were on our way to the Tri-State Gas Engine and Tractor show in Portland, IN and got hit. We were pulled well off of the road with our show trailer and old camper rig (the old high rise) when a guy in a pickup ran a stop sign at the intersection behind us, crossed 4 lanes and hit an empty grain hauler. It tipped the semi over and sent the works sliding into us. It was a clear day with visibility of 4 miles each direction. If we hadn't had the larger truck, I don't know what would have happened. That was 7 years ago and it still affects me. Please stay safe and God bless.
Keep on Trucking 🚛💨🚛💨🚛💨🚛💨
And Vlogging great job Kurt 👍💪😎😎
O-H-I-O Porter greetings.🇺🇸 This is one I hadn’t seen yet. Getting caught up. Don’t you just love those dusty gravel roads!? 😵💫 Most of the time they’re mainly one lane roads & the people behind you get tired of your dust & try to pass you!😠 Oh, the. The dust can catch up with you. You had a better shot of the wreck than we did, not that we really wanted to see it. I hate when a truck is involved in any crash. It usually tends to make me shiver a bit.😵💫 It’s good when they treat you with respect & just let you know what the situation is, but don’t forget to show them respect as well. I learned from my big brother to take it slow & easy as much as possible & not get into a rush. That kind of driving can save you a lot of headaches!🧐 Glad you guys are OK! 🥰🤩✌️
I noticed you are keeping the revs at a minimum when upshifting good way to save fuel that kitty cat has a lot of torque no need to make it scream Good job
Hi Kurt & Opie, hope you are both well. My brothers dog had an issue with dried food and the vet told us it because it absorbs a lot of moisture once it enters the body. They told us to try putting the food into a bowl and adding a small amount of Luke warm water to it 10 mins before feeding the dog. It just softens the food before eating. Seems to have work as they’ve had no further problems. Hope this helps.
My dad taught me how to drive a truck and how to look ahead and watch the people down the road 🫣gives you a whole new outlook I would dang near brake at every cross road until I got used to it 🙈people run up on stops at full speed scares you to death. Learning things like at red lights the don’t walk will start flashing at the intersection before it goes yellow then red gives you something to watch giving you a few extra seconds to judge your plan 👍😎😎Rickster
when i'm driving I give a semi a wide birth. except when following. I have been known to draft a semi to save a bit on fuel. My mom used to yell at me about it lol.
Great videos! For your family you should have seat belt on! 😀Never know what could happen and if you have watched any videos ! You know what can happen if your thrown around in the cab!
I'm still a little behind on your videos as I just got back from a vacation in Wisconsin, but I sure hope everyone involved was okay. Good job Opie, for helping your dad navigate around the corner!
Happy Father's day to you and your dad. Opie just not hungry like you said he'll eat when he is hungry. Be safe out there.
see to many wrecks out here, stay safe big dog.
I hope you have a great father's day
Inertia always wins, pay attention while driving. Love your channel, keep your chin up bro.
Great video.
Lot of sky out there.
Howdy I'm a new subscriber i hope everyone survived that accident
Thanks for the video Kurt you and opie are the best. Sleep tight 😴 and god bless
First time here and really enjoyed the views, the smoothness of your driving and your information. Thanks for sharing. Be safe!
Same here. And Opie is cool. He reminds me of my "RIP" dog when it comes to being spoiled by wet food.
Absolutely brilliant once again as always Kurt and I have to say that Opie definitely knows how to play the game regarding his food you both take good care of yourselves won't you Kurt
Another good video. 👍
Stay safe my friend. God bless you. 🙏
happy fathers day kurt
You feed him wet cause you love him as i do mine and i give mine a cheeseburger plan every friday and can and dry the rest of the time she is 5 years old and the vet says she is ok
Opie has Kurt wrapped around his paw
Happy Father's Day Kurt
It’s Southwest Kansas, Kurt 😁.
98 percent of all truck vs car collisions it's usually the car's fault. The best protection for truckers from truck accident chasing lawyers is a forward facing dash cam. It's cheap insurance.
U give in to him because u love him. Attaboy. Very cool
I remember when that truck stop in Garden City first opened up stayed there plenty of time's while waiting to loaded out of the meat plant? Haven't been there in yrs though
Be safe and stay cool love ❤️ the video awesome as always.

Really enjoyed the video today!
First Class off roading
Cool video thanks Kurt
Lol. Try putting some water on the dry food. It works for my dogs.
Looky here Kurt,you domy eat the same meal every day.PrinceOpie has taste buds too,and likes some variety in his grub!!!
Thoughts and prayers
Happy Father's Day
Just another example that Opie runs the truck and Kurts the driver. Opie is the boss.
HAPPY FATHERS DAY KURT,YOUR A GOOD ONE,TAKE CARE
2:21
Someone is going to be happy!
New Rivian’s on their way!
I have found that most people that drive 389 Peterbilts and W900 Kenworths are usually good at backing.
Nice to see you close to my area. TA truckstop at Alda, Ne exit
i always had this motto in my head when i was driving. "big rigs take out 4 wheelers, and trains take out big rigs."
Kurt? how many times have you press your foot brake, seeing a rig move beside you and think your rolling? think I did it at least 3 in 30 yrs of driving.
Please be careful sir.
Yes I have a shepherd and he got a T-Bone rare today. May be I should check if the problem is me.... HOURRA
Reminds of the high schools girls killed in Oklahoma a few months past when the girls pull out in front of a semi and was hit. There was talking heads said they hoped the semi driver would be arrested as trucks cause crashes. I hope everyone will good.
That driver was not at fault, dashcam and eye witnesses said the girls pulled out in front of the truck.
Good nite , Opie
Man I really hope that those people will be OK
Hello from Ky!❤🙏
Let’s not forget that the four wheelers very rarely check their blinker fluid resovore
10-4 Good Work
